"10x" mostly functions as a reputation badge. It's not a realistic metric for performance. It's something you get from other people. There's not a good test to figure out if you're 10x better than some randomly

Most of the AI generated images are good enough to be first drafts or sketches, and with some editing, they can be coherent images. This makes AI generators a good tool. Not sure the same is true for video though. It feels like you'll

Something might be a red flag for an employee which causes them to immediately want to move on. Companies look for red flags and pass on employees all the time. Relatively, it's more expensive for employees to take a job then leave.

TBH you could add Architect and DevOps if they're doing architecture/writing IaC as well. These all can be individual roles. The formula doesn't necessarily have to be salary times roles, but it should be higher than specific

Housing demand is supported by investors who probably never pay interest on the homes they buy, so I doubt you will see much decrease. I don't think you can really control home prices with interest rates any more.

You can equally make the argument that whining about a post removed is also being fragile, just go to a different website, turn off the computer, start your own blog, etc. The difference now is that corporations have to allow this, and that
